As the Heretics are terrified of being identified/filmed (as many are students or even school teachers and their futures would be ruined), revealing their identities would be an effective method of discouraging their continued efforts. During confrontation with an individual (e.g. on 6-Jan-2020, at night), one Patriot should wrestle the balaclava, helmet, etc. free and another come in close to film the face. This should be posted immediately to social media and/or sent to the police; Even though training vests and helmets are commonly worn nowadays by the Heretics, the rest of their bodies are vulnerable, especially the arms, legs, and groin. When striking, aim LOW. A well-aimed blow with a flagstaff to the shinbone/tibia is extremely painful; An alternative to punching, a thick, heavy flagstaff used well could make an effective offensive and defensive weapon; I have seen Patriots forced to retreat because they were not wearing either goggles or a respirator when sprayed with pepper spray or bear mace, so make sure you have both (in addition to a helmet)—see my “Post 1”; It’s common for the Heretics to be knocked on the ground by stronger Patriots, but I have seen many ineffectual blows afterwards as the Heretics’ full backpacks, training vests, helmets, etc. cushion the blows, so remember to strike LOW; I have seen Patriots rush towards the Heretics’ “black block” (grouped formation) individually, only to be pepper sprayed and/or knocked to the ground and beaten, so remember always to fight together as a TEAM; Try to isolate and overwhelm individual Heretics, remembering to shield against any rescue party. Knock the individual to the ground and try to confiscate any items possible—cell phones, helmets, goggles, backpacks—as the more it costs them to re-equip, the more unlikely they will return. Also, the cell phones, especially, could be a valuable source of Heretic network contact and maybe even funding information; Respirators do not seem to be a very common item, so a group of Patriots wearing respirators of their own could ignite tear gas and more forward as a group to disperse Heretics; All Patriot groups should have at least one man with a bullhorn. He should constantly harass the Heretics and lower their moral in any way he can; Do not fall for Heretic lies and misinformation: ones with “Press” on their helmets busy filming and ones that hold out their arms and say, “calm down” are at the next moment likely to hit you over the head with a stick, etc. (remember Kyle); As the Heretics always have their own individuals filming, do your best to disrupt them by standing in their way, knocking the cameras out of their hands, taking their cameras away, etc.; Understand that the Heretics project their own evils onto others and live according to lies, so when they shout, “racist” or “fascist”, etc. they are, in fact, talking about THEMSELVES; Do not be baited by the screaming and yelling of Heretic females as many of these will try to bait Patriots or make Patriots lose morale. As these are far less-equipped, pepper spray in the face is a good silencing mechanism; Try to identify any Heretic leaders giving orders. Have several Patriots set aside in the shadows, perhaps filming, specifically able to shed identifying clothing (e.g. with a Proud Boys logo), blend in with any public crowd, and then dox these Heretics back to where they live or work or go to school (or to their cars), recording as many personal details as possible. Create a database with this information (with photos) for future use. Forget morality in this instance—these Heretics would destroy the entire country: cancel our culture and make us all communists; Braver Patriots should disguise themselves as Heretics (again, see my "Post 1"), infiltrate their “black block”, and use walkie-talkies, etc. to inform other Patriots of their movements, intentions, members’ names, etc.; Hold post-conflict meetings to discuss what worked, what didn’t, and to elicit suggestions on how to prepare for the next encounter. Happy Christmas. “And we shall know no fear!”
